  Case: Late Night Drink
The 3rd Grade classes of your school go on a field trip to a sleep over at the zoo. It is yourself, 3 other teachers, 4 teacher assistants, and 6 parent volunteers. It is late and you see that one of the parents brought beer with them. You go to check to make sure that your students are all asleep but one of the parents invites you to sit down and have a drink with them. You know it is against the code of ethics to do so before checking the students safety but the other parents start calling you names. What do you do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You remind them that you are on a SCHOOL trip, and that it's not appropriate to drink on school trips, nor would it be ethical. I would kindly tell the parent that they should put their beverage away and to not drink it.
